On a mission to start vacation.
We had such a busy week Via passed out on take off.
Our friend/one time roomate/army buddy Kris Kane was promoted to Lutienten Colonel and we were happy to be there.
Ike and Via playing with toy tanks after the ceremony.
We were also given a private tour of a museum about the history of Ft. Sam Houston (in San Antonio). The kids and I enjoyed it for about 30 minutes. Denny enjoyed it for much longer and could have stayed a few hours.
Next stop was to see the Webb family. They used to live in our neighborhood in Eire. They were our first friends in Erie when we moved there.
Day 2: SeaWorld
We had PERFECT weather and spent HOURS at SeaWorld. Was a fun experience for all of us.
The kids are in this playground somewhere. It was huge and impossible to keep track of them.
Beluga Whales
Pacific white-sided dolphins
And ORCAS!
Ike was happy to sit much farther away from the orcas. They make really loud noises and splash you with water and he just wanted to watch from a distance.
Then it was off to eat some Mexican food for supper.
Some quick playing in the driveway before showers and bed so we can be ready for another fun and busy day tomorrow.
